Use simple .html files instead of folders with index.html

By default content/blog/post.md will result in blog/post/index.html so the resulting URL will be example.com/blog/post/. Is it possible to use simple .html files for each page instead? With the above example that would be blog/post.html.

I know I can get direct HTML pages using aliases = [ "blog/post.html" ] but this would still result in blog/post/index.html produced. Also many features, like internal @/ links produce URLs that expect the default structure.

That’s Support ugly urls · Issue #840 · getzola/zola · GitHub

As mentioned in Support ugly urls · Issue #840 · getzola/zola · GitHub I don’t think there are enough people wanting that feature to be worth the added complexity.

Thanks for the response. I"ll subscribe to the issue.

My main use case for having simple URLs is the ease of working on a page locally without having to run a zolla server.
